"Only few more touches, and then it
will be complete"
The speaker, Raymond Kingsley, stood
gazing with tender light in his honest
blue eyes at the picture before him. He
was an amateur artist, with much power
and genius, that only required study and
necessity to give the world a truly great
painter.
Unfortunately for the world, he was
wealthy and in love; consequently he was
not very energetic in his study. He was
content to follow art simply as an amuse-
ment, and satisfied in bring able to repro
duce on canvas the form and features of
the girl he loved, there his ambition ended.
The picture, on which he had been hard
at work since sunrise, represented young
girl dressed in picturesque toboLgan cos
tune; her small hands, encased in soft
woolly mittens, held a pair of snow-shoes,
and at her feet was toboggan on which
were seated two boys, presumably her
brothers.
The snow lay thick and white upon the
ground, and sparkled in the sunlight on
the bare branches.
The girls face was full of tenderness
and beauty. A soft knit cap sat jauntily
upon her shapely head, and eontrasted with
its waves of dark brown hair, and her
eyes, brilliant and loving, had truth beam
ing in every winsome glance.
Raymond Kingsley drew a long breath
as he gazed upon the sweet face in the
picture.
ooh, Lera my beautiful. bright eyed
darling, this is just as you looked the day
my eyes first rested upon you. l loved you
then, and l love you now, my darling, with
all the strength of nv manhood; and when
this picture is completed l shall ask you to
become my wife. For your dear sake, with
your love to bless me, might some day
make my name famous. Without it-Oh!
Lera, Lera, my darling without your love
care not to live"
1t was Christmas eve. All day long the
snow had settled down in soft, delicate
flakes, until at six o'clock it ceased. 1t
laid so thick and white that the world
seemed half buried beneath a t1Ossy cover
lid. The Christmas stars shone in the sky
and the Christmas bells mervily pealed
forth.
In the little parlor at Mr.. Grantley's
comfortable home were seated two people,
one young and pretty girl. She was
pretty, because dark, lustrous eyes, wavy
brown hair and soft, blush rose COM
plexion made her so. Her girlish figure
was full of graceful curves, and looked
very small and slight in a dress OF black
lace with bodice of dotted black net
But bark she is speaking.
Raymond, dear friend, forgive me.

knew I loved you, Lera."
"You never said so, was the quiet reply.
Not in words, it is true, Lera; but, my
darling, l love you with all my strength,
and l want you for my wife"
1T is too late, she said, gently.
God help me, if this is your answer.
Lera?" he whispered, hurriedly, and his
arms were around her, and for an instant
she was clasped to his heart.

You We had such dreams, l know.
How lightly rest the fingers of sweet sleep
Upon the eyes of youth

And each wide chimney hides
A Santa Claus for every anxious boy,
And every girl besides.
